Chapter 108 The Ming Dynasty is in trouble. What does this dog emperor want?

This time, more than 700 people were imprisoned.

Officials at all levels and eunuchs in the palace were all imprisoned.

In addition, there is also a massive self-examination and self-reporting campaign.

As long as he honestly explains how much land he has embezzled, and as long as the crime is not extremely heinous, Zhu Youxiao still chooses to be tolerant. However, at this stage, what really concerns Zhu Youxiao is the grassroots problem and how to eliminate this problem.

“Wouldn’t it be better to have public ownership?”

Zhang Haogu muttered in his heart, but with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, this is what I said. To establish a farm, a bottom-up feedback mechanism must be established. Although the Emperor is benevolent and loves the people, there must be someone

A channel to obtain real information, allowing Datong students to provide it at all times!!"

"Establish a long-term supervision mechanism and a normalized anti-corruption mechanism so that people can make their voices heard!"

Zhu Youxiao nodded frequently.

Under the influence of Zhang Haogu, Zhu Youxiao's thinking mode has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

Corrupt officials must be killed, but how to establish an effective anti-corruption and prevention system is also very important.

Zhang Haogu was also a little worried that Zhu Youxiao couldn't control himself and went on Zhu Yuanzhang's route and killed them all. The late Ming Dynasty was not the early Ming Dynasty, and Xiao Zhu couldn't do what Old Zhu could do.

Although the current system of the Ming Dynasty is rotten, it can still be used if you make do with it. Before the new system is established, you can make do with it. If this is really fought to the end, no one around the Dog Emperor will be able to use it.

fine!

Zhu Youxiao still attached great importance to Zhang Haogu's words.

Don't rush to kill.

Instead, we need to point out all their crimes before taking action.

"emperor!"

Zhang Haogu casually took out several memorials and placed them in front of Zhu Youxiao: "These are the regulations for dividing the land that I have drawn up during this period, as well as the training of the new army, and the court's loan business!

"

Zhu Youxiao opened it and looked at it carefully.

Zhang Haogu's memorials have always been concise, without much fuss. They are all spoken. Zhu Youxiao looks effortless, and Zhang Haogu writes them effortlessly.

Now, he doesn't really need Zhang Ruitu as a tool.

For more than half a year, in addition to practicing calligraphy every day, Zhang Haogu also spent an hour every day reading to improve his knowledge as much as possible.

Zhu Youxiao read it one by one.

While watching, I was also chatting with Zhang Haogu.

How to divide this land, and how to mobilize the masses to dig ditches after the land is divided, etc.

For example, the top priority is not to plant other crops on the Huangzhuang land for the time being, but to plant sweet potatoes first. Eating sweet potatoes every day will definitely not work. If you eat too much, you will feel nauseated and vomited.

However, in a few years, when natural disasters continue, this will be a good thing, at least people will not starve to death.

Secondly, Zhang Haogu still proposed industrial land and agricultural land.

We should also vigorously develop animal husbandry.

Pigs, chickens and ducks must be raised. Not only must they be raised, but they must be bred on a large scale.

Only when soldiers eat well can they be strong enough to fight.

Food is very important.

And this involves feed.

Zhang Haogu does not expect that these chickens, ducks, pigs and cows will be the same as those of later generations. However, at least certain improvements must be made. At the very least, the people must be able to eat meat. They cannot say that they have meat every day and eat it every week.

Once or twice, you have to do it.

Breed new breeds of chickens and ducks, breed new breeds of pigs and cattle.

Feed in this era was mainly composed of grains, seeds and roots or tubers containing a large amount of starch. For example, various grains, wheat, barley, beans, etc.

But now that we have sweet potatoes and potatoes, we can expand the scale a little.

The second is, if this policy is to be implemented, how to get it accepted by the people.

How to convince people that planting sweet potatoes can bring about a bumper harvest.

This needs to be promoted by the grassroots.

However, relatively speaking, there is not much resistance, because the land was given by the emperor. What happened to letting you grow some sweet potatoes and potatoes in the first year?

Before I knew it, it was already sunset.

At noon, Zhu Youxiao arranged the royal meal, and the two of them continued to chat while eating.

Zhu Youxiao's emotions began to settle down from his anger. Occasionally, he would ask Zhang Haogu some things that he didn't quite understand, and Zhang Haogu also needed to explain them one by one.

With every in-depth communication, Zhu Youxiao could feel that his master seemed to know everything and knew everything, and he could bring him novel experiences every time.

At first I thought Zhang Haogu only knew carpentry skills, but then I felt that the master could see the shortcomings of the Ming Dynasty and was knowledgeable about the past and present. Now I found that this guy actually knows a lot about breeding and farming.

Astronomy and geography, everything is unknown and everything is unknown!

Ming understands that the king belongs to yes.

late at night

Zhu Youxiao really couldn't hold on any longer, so he returned to the palace to rest.

Zhang Haogu, on the other hand, was full of energy. After returning home, he continued to read, practice calligraphy, and made up a few stories to coax Zhu Qiqi to sleep.

Dawn

Zhang Haogu was called to Xiyuan by Zhu Youxiao again.

The two chatted for three full days.

During these three days, the two people were chatting, and Eunuch Wei was also busy arresting people.

Especially the factory guards, Dongchang fans, and corrupt officials were arrested one after another by Eunuch Wei and sent directly to prison.

I dare not put them in the Ministry of Punishment Prison. God knows if the cabinet will directly approve a note to release these people.

They were all placed in prison and confessed honestly.

As for the temporary vacancies, let some candidate officials take over first. Three-legged toads are hard to find, and there are too many four-legged dog officials. However, there is still a need to find candidate officials from Yongding County. Zhang Haogu is

Or simply let a group of government officials come in to act as administrative agents.

After three days, Zhang Haogu and Zhu Youxiao came up with an idea.

Zhu Youxiao still wanted to continue chatting, but was rejected by Zhang Haogu. Are you still talking? Hurry up and divide the land first. Spring sowing will begin soon. If you don't divide the land, spring sowing will be delayed.

Divide the land. Divide the land quickly and don't delay spring sowing.

And the entire Ming Dynasty has already exploded. What on earth is this dog emperor going to do?

After arresting so many officials, they quickly arranged for one alternate official after another, and even political affairs officers who were not alternate officials were said to be substitutes, but it was completely against the rules.

Zhu Youxiao had not been in court for a while, and the Sutra Banquet had long been discontinued. The Sutra Banquet was a small lecture every day and one lecture every ten days, which was the main way for the emperor to receive Confucian education.

However, Zhu Youxiao hated sutra banquets very much. They were inflexible and rigid. Confucius only had a few books in total, and he talked about them over and over again, especially the sutra banquets held three times a month. The ceremony was grand. In addition to the grandness,

It has no effect outside.

When encountering a "foolish king" like Zhu Youxiao, he would think of escaping.

Other emperors often used the reason that the holy bow was against the peace or the cold weather was too hot as an excuse to temporarily skip the banquet day lectures, but Zhu Youxiao directly canceled it without giving any reason or excuse. Hundreds of officials went to the meeting to remonstrate and remonstrated, believing that "it is important for the emperor not to do this."

Lectures should come before lectures, and lectures should not be preceded by the Sutra Banquet.” The Sutra Banquet must not be abandoned even a day.

Zhu Youxiao, on the other hand, chuckled. If he took one more look, he would have lost. Instead, he got together with Zhang Haogu every day and listened to Zhang Haogu himself speaking about Confucian classics.

Something like: "If you ask in the morning, you will die in the evening" means that if you find out the way to your house in the morning, you will die in the evening.

"Now that he has come, let him be in peace.": Now that he has come, let him be buried here.

"A gentleman does not use weapons": A true gentleman does not bother to kill his opponent with weapons, but only beats him to death with his fists.

"Review the past and learn the new": If you meet someone who was disabled before and beat him again, you will have new insights.

"When a person is about to die, his words are also good.": When you meet someone who talks badly, beat him until he is half dead, and his words will become nicer.

Zhu Youxiao felt as if he had opened the door to a new world. It turned out that Confucius meant this. No wonder his master liked to beat people so much. It turned out that he had really understood the true meaning of Confucius.

Wenyuan Pavilion

Ye Xianggao frowned as he looked at the memorial below.

What on earth is this dog emperor going to do?

More than 700 people were arrested, including eunuchs, military officers, and civil servants, and all of them were sent to prison.

However, what really frightens Ye Xianggao is not this. These people are not from the Donglin Party and are of low rank. They can do such lowly things as embezzling the Imperial Manor. Ye Xianggao is ashamed to associate with them.

What really frightened him was the news from the cabinet that the Dog Emperor did not go through the Ministry of Personnel but directly arranged a group of people without meritorious titles to act as administrative agents. The official status was the same as that of normal officials.
